What is PicRush?

PicRush is a small widget that displays 5 blog avatars. A avatar is a small image (64x64 pixels) that represent a blog. You can put this widget on your blog. Here is a example:

(you can choose different sizes) The above PicRush contains 5 blog avatars which point to 5 different blogs. One of these could be yours. How? Read on! or Create a Free Account and Login.

Why should i use it?

PicRush can bring surfers to your blog!
When a surfer clicks the PicRush on your blog you will receive a credit. 1 credit will make your blog avatar appear 200 times on the PicRush on other blogs. (A click is only worth 200 views?) So when 5 surfers click on the PicRush widget you will receive 5 credits, meaning that your blog avatar will appear 1000 times on someone else PicRush. (What are unique views?)

Network Status

  • 1 click on the PicRush on your blog will cause your blog avatar (including a link to your blog) to be displayed 200 times on the PicRush on other blogs! (the number 200 will increase when the size of the network increases)
  • There are already 4040 blogs in the PicRush network. (PicRush started on 10 October 2007)

Categories?

When you upload your blog avatar you will also be able to choose a category. If you for example choose the Babe category then your PicRush will only contain blog avatars from blogs in the Babe category. In addition your blog avatar will only be displayed on PicRush widgets on blogs in the Babe category. This way you won't get avatars from for example Hardcore blogs on your Babe blog.

BETA

How many impressions (views) you get for 1 click is subject to change. This is because we need to figure out which value is the best.

How much does it cost?

It is free for everyone! Simply Create a Account and Login.
You get 1 credit for free for every blog you add!

Really free?

Yes really We get our hosting costs back by putting our own blog avatar on the 6th place in every PicRush (the PicRush logo)
